An electronic speed control (ESC) is an electronic circuit that controls and regulates the speed of an electric motor. It may also provide reversing of the motor and dynamic braking . Miniature electronic speed controls are used in electrically powered radio controlled models .
The predecessor of modern electronic traction control systems can be found in high-torque, high-power rear-wheel-drive cars as a limited slip differential.A limited-slip differential is a purely mechanical system that transfers a relatively small amount of power to the non-slipping wheel, while still allowing some wheel spin to occur.
The car will maintain the speed the driver sets until the driver hits the brake pedal, clutch pedal, or disengages the system. [36] Specific cruise control systems can accelerate or decelerate, but require the driver to click a button and notify the car of the goal speed. [36] ESC control light

A Seattle mother is accused of beating her teenage son to death with an extension cord because he didn't finish his chores -- allegedly telling cops she "went too far" while spanking him.
The theory of operation is simple: when the gyroscopic sensor detects that the direction taken by the car does not coincide with what the steering wheel sensor reports, the ESC software will brake the necessary individual wheel(s) (up to three with the most sophisticated systems), so that the vehicle goes the way the driver intends.
